2. Image Reading
II. READ SYSTEM

1. Outline
The read system of the CR-180 consists
of an image reading section that reads the
image data from image sensors, and an
MICR reading section that reads MICR characters from a magnetic head.
OCR reading of the characters on
documents that include MICR characters is
done using a suitable application, based on
the image data read with the image sensors.
This function is not included in the application (Scanning Utility for CR-180) supplied
with the CR-180.
LED
(RGB)
Light guide
Figure 2-201 shows the sectional view of

the image reading section. The image sensor unit is comprised of a CIS PCB, lens
array, light guide, LEDs (RGB), LED array
(W), and a case. The LEDs (RGB) (one of
each color) are mounted on the PCB. They
serve to illuminate the documents that pass
through the light guide. In addition to the
LEDs (RGB), the CR-180 also incorporates a
white LED array (W).
When performing normal scanning, both
the LEDs (RGB) and LED array (W) are lit,
making it possible to read images prone to
shadows in the case of creased documents.
CIS PCB
Lens array

However, if scanning of embossed characters is selected, the LED array (W) does
not light so as to produce shadows. In the
case of dropout color and red emphasis, the
most effective lighting is achieved with only
the LEDs (RGB) lit, so the LED array (W)
remains unlit.
The light reflected from the document
passes through the lens array and shines
into the sensors on the CIS PCB. The sensor
pixel density is 300 dpi, and the effective
pixel count is 1404 (effective length 118
mm). An A4 size CIS PCB is used for this
function, but the effective pixel range is restricted according to the specifications for
the CR-180.

base, which serves as the reference.

Moreover, a mechanism for pressing
documents horizontally against the roller
so that they are in contact with the magnetic head is provided. A mechanism for
arc rotation is also provided for the magnetic head.
1) Mechanism
Figure 2-202 shows the plan view of the
MICR reading section. Magnets are located in front of the feed roller, and a
head roller is provided opposite the
magnet head for MICR reading.

digital data, identifies characters from

the characteristics, and outputs the corresponding character code.
The reading height of the magnetic head
is 9 mm, so that the MICR characters
printed in the clear band can be read in
their entirety.
Figure 2-205 shows a typical voltage
waveform of the magnetic head.
2) Data reading
Figure 2-204 shows the line magnetic
force of the MICR reading section.
The magnet magnetizes the MICR characters, causing the formation of an N
pole at the right of each character. When
the magnetized MICR characters pass
by the magnetic head, a voltage waveform is produced at the magnetic head.
This analog waveform is output to the
IC100 (SH2) on the control PCB. The
IC100 converts the analog data into

their bottom edge, which serves as the reference for MICR reading, is in contact with

2. Jogger Mechanism
After the MICR characters have been

read, the document passes the large roller
and reaches the image reading section. The
large roller is slightly slanted in order to rectify documents that are traveling obliquely.
After the document image has been read in
the image reading section, the document is
delivered into pocket 1 or pocket 2.
An imprinter section is provided between
the MICR reading section and the larger
roller.
These feed drives use the main motor.
In addition to the main motor, a magnetic
clutch is provided for pick-up roller ON/OFF
switching, and a solenoid is provided for
each of the shutter drive and flapper drive,
respectively. A dedicated jog motor is used
for the jogger drive.
Read timing and faulty document feed
detection sensors are also provided along
the feed path.
Figure 2-302 shows the jogger mechanism.

When the Jog button is pressed while
the document sensor detects a document,
the jog motor starts rotating. As a result, the
document presser plate is released, and
simultaneously, the jog roller starts moving.
Since the profile of the jog roller is square,
vibrations are transmitted to the document
to align it. Following the lapse of the prescribed time, or when the Stop button is
pressed, the jog motor stops. However, the
jog roller is controlled by the jog sensor so
that the flat part of the jog roller stops at the
top side. Then the jog motor reverses and
the document presser plate returns to its
position.
When the power is switched ON, the
CR-180 runs cycles through once, even if
no documents are set.

3. Separation Section Adjustment

Mechanism
Figure 2-303 shows the separation section adjustment mechanism. The space between the separation roller and the feeding
roller can be adjusted by changing the position of the feeding roller.
The feeding roller is supported by the
feeding roller holder. Since a coil spring is
attached to the feeding roller holder, it is
pulled in direction F in the figure and rests
against part A of the non-separation lever.
When the adjustment dial is turned
clockwise, the adjustment dial is screwed in
and the non-separation lever gets pushed to
toward the back, so that part A moves backward and the space between the feeding
roller and the separation roller decreases.
When the adjustment dial is turned
counterclockwise, the adjustment dial returns
and the non-separation lever moves forward,
so that the space between the feeding roller
and the separation roller increases.
In the non-separation mode, by thrusting
up the non-separation lever, the contact point
of the non-separation lever and the feeding
roller holder moves from part A to part B, so
that the space increases.

1) Document jam detection
Delay and residual jams are detected by
the leading edge sensor and the registration sensor. Each sensor compares
the document detection or non-detection
timing with the prescribed timing and
determined whether a document jam
has occurred. Moreover, residual jams
are judged to have occurred even if the
sensor detect a document while the
power is ON.
2) Double feed detection
If double feed detection is set, double
feeding is detected by the double feed
sensor. Using the thickness and length
of the first document as reference values, if the second or subsequent documents exceed the 0.8 to 1.5 thickness
range or the 20 mm length range, double feeding is judged to have occurred.

2. Image Processing inside CR-180

image processing inside the CR-180.
The read resolution of the CR-180 is 200
200 dpi. An analog signal corresponding to
the density of each pixel is output from the
CIS unit to the analog processor of the control PCB. Here, following offset adjustment
and gain adjustment, the image data is converted to a 10-bit digital signal.
Next, the image data is sent to the image
controller, and following shading correction
(black correction, white correction), gamma
correction, brightness adjustment, and edge
emphasis are performed according to the set
conditions.
Image data for which image processing
has been completed is output as 8-bit grayscale data to the computer via the I/F controller.
In the case of gamma correction, brightness adjustment, and edge emphasis, the
table used for image data processing is selected according to the user settings. In the
case of gamma correction, a binary table and
a grayscale tables corresponding to the contrast set by the user are available.

1) Sensor position correction
The reading positions of the front and
back sensors differ by approximately 8
mm. Sensor position correction corrects
the image data transmission difference
by this amount.
2) Resolution conversion
The resolution of the image data sent
from the CR-180 is 200 dpi. Resolution
conversion converts the image data to
image data of a resolution that matches
the set resolution value.
3) Binary conversion
Binary conversion performs black-andwhite (simple binary), error diffusion, or
advance text enhancement processing.
Advance text enhancement is the same
background removal processing as conventional text enhancement, but it is
performed with modularized software.
4) Front image reversal
Figure 2-404 shows the scanning directions for the front side and the back side.

orientation of the image on the front side

5) Size detection
When automatic size detection is selected, the image is read using the maximum size. The pixels other than the black
ones are detected starting from the edge
of the image, and the black pixel data
outside the scanned image is discarded.
Figure 2-406
6) 16-level conversion
When grayscale 16-level (4-bit) is selected, the image data is converted from
256-level (8-bit) image data. However,
this function is not provided for the ISIS
driver.

V. POWER SUPPLY
1. Outline
the power PCB.
The power PCB of the CR-180 supports
AC power supply input ranging from 100 V to
240 V. The AC power is supplied to the power
PCB by setting the power switch ON.
The supplied AC power (100 V to 240 V)

is converted to unsmoothed UN100 V to 240
V with a rectifying bridge and then sent to a
transformer. The transformer changes UN100
V to 240 V, and after converting the current to
+24 V with a DC/DC converter, outputs it to
the control PCB. The power PCB is equipped
with a fuse for overcurrent protection.
Only +24 VDC is output from the power
PCB, and +5 VDC and +3.3 VDC are generated by the DC/DC converter on the control
PCB.

2. Power Circuit Protection Function
3. Energy-Saving Mode
The power PCB is the switching regulator

type.
If, due to an anomaly, the load shortcircuits and overcurrent results, the protection
function is activated and stops output.
Moreover, if the DC/DC converter generating
+5 VDC and +3.3 VDC on the control PCB
breaks down and a +24 VDC voltage is applied, the protection function kicks in and
stops output. While the output is stopped,
switch the power switch to OFF.
A fuse is provided on the control PCB. If
an overcurrent flows into the DC/DC converter, the fuse blows and the power supply
to the board stops.
A fuse is also used to protect the main
motor. If an overcurrent flows in the part supplying +24 VDC to the main motor, the fuse
blows and power supply to the main motor
stops.
The door switch connected to the control
PCB changes to OFF when the top cover and
the maintenance cover are open. At this time,
+24 VDC is not supplied to the main motor.
The CR-180 is designed so that when

document feed and data transmission are not
performed, the mode changes to the energysaving mode, to lower the power consumption.
In the energy-saving mode, the power
consumption is 12 W or less, and the control
PCB, image processing controller, and motor
functions are all stopped.
Recovery from the energy-saving mode
occurs automatically when a signal is sent
from the computer, or when an operation
button on the CR-180 is pressed.

disk supplied with the CR-180. Do not
copy this program. Do not let the user
know the folder name and password to
be used.
4. All Adjustment
This mode is used to adjust all the image
sensor units. Be sure to execute this mode if
image sensor units or the control PCB have
been replaced.
This mode consists of "optical adjustment" and "regist adjustment" of the image
sensor units.
For "optical adjustment", determine the
correction value to be used for the shading
correction performed for the image's digital
signal. This correction value is determined to
all the pixels for each one of the LED lighting
conditions. The outline of the setting procedure is given below.
LED intensity adjustment
Offset adjustment
Gain adjustment
Write adjustment value
Determine black correction value for
above adjustment value
Determine white correction value for
above adjustment value
For "Regist Adjustment", determine the
detection timing of the registration sensor
and the document read start and stop timing.
The determined value is saved in the
flash memory (IC120) of the control PCB of
the CR-180.
Note:Only the gain adjustment and white
correction values are determined in
"Shading Adjust" in the service screen,
so this mode must not be used in the
field. Also, "Regist Adjust" in the service screen is the same thing as "Regist
Adjust" in this mode. "Regist adjustment" can be performed using the
"Regist adjust" mode instead of this
mode.
5-5
Operating Procedure
1) Clean the rollers and the reading glass.
2) Set a shading sheet (TKM-0335) as the
first sheet, and regular paper (a piece of
white copy paper cut to the size of a
shading sheet or the size of a check) as
the second sheet. Alternatively, two
shading
sheets
can
be
used.
However, none of the sheets must have
stains or creases.
3) Move the delivery stopper to match the
length of the shading sheet.
4) Select [All Adjust] in the service screen.
5) Optical adjustment is automatically performed. A progress screen appears on

the display.
Sample displays are shown below.
Figure 5-204
Figure 5-205
In the case of a SCSI-3 (Ultra) connection, optical adjustment takes approximately
4 minutes to complete. In the case of a
USB1.1 (Full-Speed) connection, it takes
approximately 10 minutes to complete.
Note:If the set sheet of paper cannot be
picked up properly, perform the "separation roller space adjustment".
5-6
6) Regist adjustment is then performed.

A progress screen appears on the display. Sample displays are shown below.
Errors
If an anomaly occurs in the adjustment

Even if the service mode is not selected,
the total count can be checked in the user's
operation screen, so this is shown for reference purposes.
Select [About] in the scanner setting
screen to display the total count, the firmware version, etc.
Figure 5-227
Change
The total count data is recorded in the
control PCB. Therefore this data changes
when the control PCB is replaced, so restoring the previous value is required.
